Please open an issue in https://github.com/sorenlouv/backport/issues or contact me directly on https://twitter.com/sorenlouv
For additional details see the logs: /Users/trentm/.backport/backport.info.log

There isn't any more detail in ~/.backport/backport.info.log.

I gather this may be something about my ~/.backport/config.json. I did create a new (classic) GH personal access token (with the repo and workflow permissions) for this according to https://github.com/sorenlouv/backport/blob/main/docs/config-file-options.md#global-config-backportconfigjson
